Faculty Absence and Travel Policy
Faculty members who will be absent from campus for professional or personal reasons must submit a Request for Absence Form with the Campus Dean. The request should be made at least two (2) weeks prior to the planned absence and is subject to the approval of the Campus Dean. Arrangements for any classes to be missed during the absence must be addressed to the satisfaction of the Campus Dean before approval will be granted. Attendance at professional meetings is encouraged and approved travel expenses incurred in attending such meetings will be reimbursed when approved prior to travel according to the University's travel policies and are subject to the availability of campus funds.
